The physics of a 61-yard field goal

Before the game, Jenkins and Chris Long took to Twitter to share thoughts on what the president had to say about the outspoken nature of National Football League players with regard to racial inequality in America.

"They're an attacking scheme", McAdoo said.

On Sunday, the Giants broke their streak of eight consecutive games without scoring 20 points, and they did so in the fourth quarter alone against the Eagles. He was carried off the field by two teammates.

"I just ran over to the sidelines to get a couple extra [practice] kicks in", Elliott said. "We've got those players across the board".

The Eagles wound up defeating the Giants 27-24 on rookie place-kicker Jake Elliott's 61-yard field goal on the final play. Second-year quarterback Carson Wentz and the Eagles look to add to the Giants' woeful start to the season on Sunday when the NFL East rivals meet at Lincoln Financial Field. Two plays later, the Giants seized their first lead of the season when Manning connected with Sterling Shepard.

On a hot, humid day, both N.F.C.

"They played harder than us today", Pierre-Paul said, commenting on the Giants' overall performance.

DEFIANT ODELL: Beckham said he doesn't care about unsportsmanlike penalties costing the team 15 yards on the kickoff.

In the game's final period, the Steelers weren't able to contain the Bears, who scored a walk-off victory on a 19-yard TD run by Howard. Wentz prayed. Safety Malcolm Jenkins anxious about Odell Beckham Jr., positioned in the end zone in case the attempt fell short, returning one for a TD.

This gave the Eagles the ball at their own 38 with 13 seconds to go. Darren Sproles got hurt, but rookie Corey Clement stepped in with his first career touchdown.

Manning's second interception came on a tipped ball that landed in Patrick Robinson's hands in the third quarter.

The thrilling nature of rookie kicker Jake Elliott's 61-yard game victor makes the highlight reel of this rivalry.

Elliott deserves Philly cheesesteaks for life after that one. You have your ultimate ups and ultimate downs and just trying to enjoy it and we'll move on.

"I saw they fell off Torrey (Smith)", Jeffery said.

VINTAGE ELI: Manning got the ball out quickly, didn't take a sack and completed 35 of 47 passes for 366 yards, three scores and two picks on a deep ball and a deflected pass. Shepard had seven receptions for 133 yards and one score. It was a ideal throw from Eli Manning and an even better catch from Beckham to keep his feet in bounds.

The Giants defense continued to step up with a stop of the Eagles offense on the following drive and they had to punt.

The lack of any running game for the Giants helped make that happen and the Eagles defensive front stuffed Orleans Darkwa from the one-yard line to close the first half.

Look at the Eagles' touchdowns and big play highlights and you'll see center Jason Kelce in the middle of nearly all of them.

With just enough time to run two plays and arrange a field goal attempt from an unlikely distance, Wentz did what the classic quarterbacks do.
